Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
1. I am in between sizes: M and L, should I order size M or L?
We recommend that you do not size up because our clothing is loose-cut, as silk does not stretch. Therefore, if you are in between sizes M and L, we suggest ordering size M.
2. What does it mean that your silk is 27 momme?
Momme is a standard measurement that indicates the weight of silk. The higher the momme, the higher the weight, quality and consequently durability. Our artisan mulberry silk is 27 momme, which is over 40% more silk than the 19 momme silk often used for mass-produced silk garments.
3. Why does your silk not need to be dry cleaned?
Our silk is produced using traditional artisan methods dating back to the 9th century, allowing it to be washed like it has been for thousands of years, without the need for dry cleaning and its harsh chemicals.
4. Is it true I can machine-wash this silk? How?
Yes, our thicker 27 momme artisan handmade silk is durable and machine washable. Place it in a laundry mesh bag to protect it from other items, then wash it on delicate or hand wash cycle using a detergent and softener for delicates. Tara recommends washing silk with shampoo and conditioner to maintain its lustre and softness. Simply add 1 tbsp of shampoo and 1 tbsp conditioner to 1 cup of water, add to your washing machine, and wash on a delicate cycle.
5. I really dislike ironing! Will I end up having to constantly iron these silk garments?
Tara and many of us here at Tara Sartoria share your dislike of ironing, and that's precisely why we love silk! Silk's lightness allows body heat to naturally soften and remove wrinkles over time. So, in reality, all you need is a quick steam, or none at all if it's sleepwear. Additionally, washing silk with shampoo and conditioner can result in fewer wrinkles when drying.
6. What is the deal with French seams?
French seams are a high-end finishing method used in haute couture and luxury garments. It takes about twice as long to make the garment and more fabric because the seams are sewn twice. But, the result is a durable garment with a polished appearance inside and out.
7. Can I wear this daily?
Yes, our customers report that our silk items are sturdy and durable, making them suitable for daily wear without concerns about tearing.

So first thing I noticed was this top is packaged beautifully. It comes in a matching silk little bag, with care instructions, and a free silk hair tie. Very thoughtful and lovely packaging. Upon taking out the top I noticed it’s not the softest silk I’ve ever owned. It’s on the thicker side which isn’t a bad thing, but the outside is only slightly softer than the inside. It just feels a little like a parachute material to me. You can tell the top is made well. I’m just not a huge fan of the fabric. I washed the top in my special silk wash, and a delicates bag, in hope of softening the fabric a bit, it didn’t really work. The good news is, it washed up well, but came out very wrinkled. This top will need to be steamed constantly… I can tell. The fit is nice, it’s pretty loose but not oversized. I ordered my regular size medium and it has a perfect fit. All in all, I’d say there are better silks out there for the price.
Did not get my order today where is it?
I have been always searching for good quality silk clothes. Finally, I found Tara’s silk! They are so soft, but thick; stunning, and well made, just like wearing clouds and wind. I’m a return customer for the gifts for my family!
This is a really nice and luxurious feeling shirt. It looks great with jeans, skirts, leggings, you name it!
Gorgeous silk fabric, French seams, mother-of-pearl buttons, and a complimentary silk scrunchie. This is a luxurious garment that people will notice. The material feels fantastic against my skin and will certainly keep me warm and looking elegant on cold New England winter days. The cut is just a bit boxy for my taste; I prefer a more tailored silhouette.
